she continues. " We welcomed each
other's practical and creative ideas.
Everyone felt heard and had a sense of
ownership. And it was fun and creative. "
It was also a formidable project. The
camp sat on stumps and dirt without any
foundation. " The mechanical systems
were all crowded into a closet off the
kitchen, " says Gale. " There was one large,
rectangular fluorescent ceiling light in the
kitchen and the bathrooms were tiny and
dated. But it had five bedrooms, plenty
for family and friends, and a fabulous
screened porch overlooking the lake. "
Since purchasing the property, the
couple have made minor improvements
throughout the property. " It was still being
used as a vacation residence then, "
says Andy, a former attorney and high
school teacher who now teaches part-time
at a nearby college. " We added structural
reinforcement to the sagging ceilings,
added barn board to the interior walls,
and took down the existing faux ceiling
in the original living room. We installed
some new appliances in the kitchen,
and added a fireplace insert because
the original stone fireplace wasn't fully
functional. "
Misiaszek began her design work in
December 2019, guided by the couple's
request to expand the camp's living area
and improve traffic flow while retaining
the charm and nostalgia of the original
structures.
" The camp was in good shape but was
lacking in insulation and a foundation, "
says Misiaszek. " The homeowners had
started some work to make it a bit more
livable, but they needed more space and
wanted to create a better thermal envelope-insulation,
doors and windows-
and create a better foundation for the
building to sit on. "
" We had to work the addition into
the buildable area of the site so it was a
conforming addition, " says Misiaszek.
" It was also a challenge for the construction
to occur, because it was difficult to
maneuver around the site and protect the
trees and existing vegetation. "
Beginning in the fall of 2020, brothers
Jason and Eric Sharpe oversaw the crew
that accomplished those goals, expanding
the footprint of the camp with a new
In the new addition, a cozy fireside seating area in the den connects by a stair to the upstairs office and another stair to the lower level.
